There are benefits to both options.My fiancé and I own a duplex in Northern California with adequate lot space to develop  another two units by the side of our existing duplex.

I just don't know if my guys file the UD now will the judge agree to it when we arrive or will they say we did not give adequate time before filing the UD, which we have seen them do with Pay or Quit Notices and UD filing dates in the past, yet we can assume rents wont be paid for a future month, before a court date and the judge normally lets that slide.

Your property will not nicely produce $100 each monthYou might have months of big negative results so be sure you have adequate reserves or credit.

Same with having adequate soffit vents.  

We have adequate financing to expand our operation and have started looking at some portfolio deals that contain anywhere from 5-100 SFH and MFH.

My insurance is adequate for right now, and I'm fine with owning the structure in my name. 

While your list of questions is extensive, I think many folks struggle with many of your same questions, so with an adequate amount of coffee this morning I will see if I can buzz through them for a better understanding:The borrower has filed for BK - A BK is not the cost barrier that most folks think it is.  

Zachary Stoll For what it’s worth it doesn’t sound like you have adequate (or any) reserves.

Hello I am sure this has been asked and answered but each new year brings new products and therefore different considerations on an old question.I am renovating the lower level of my house to feature an in-law suiteit is a ground floor apartment with adequate runoff so flooding is not a big concernThe problem i am having is coming up with the best flooring choice which will give me all my wants.ultimately the place is a one bedroom apt where the living room and kitchen will share the same 14.5x14.5 spacesmall yes but the bedroom is 9.5x21 so it makes up for the crampiness of the living roomkitchenI would like the whole place to feature the same flooring which is why I am leaning to vinyl plank but the good stuff which is pretty pricey. but it will allow me to cover the kitchen and bath area along with all the other spaces foyer, bedroom. laundry and living room. laminate will allow me to do the place much cheaper as I can find phenomenal deals on laminate, but I would need to go with tile in the bathroom at least which is not a deal breaker it just makes the place lose that cohesive look.porcelain tile is about the same cost and more labor intensive but I only have about 600 sqft to coverThe sub floor is cement. so i will have to factor in underlayment for my laminate.just wondering what some of you would do if you were in this same scenario and whyI know only I can ultimately make the best decision for me but it would be helpful to hear others thoughts and experiences.

Which tells me that it's possible to screen people upfront and then provide them adequate coaching, and make it near certain they will have at least some success.
